I am from Lincoln, RI and have lived there my whole life. I majored in secondary education with a middle school endorsment in general science. I have always loved science since my freshman year of high school when I took Biology with a wonderful teacher. Out side of school my passtion is my horses. I have been riding since I was six and as a part time job I am a riding instructor. Also I enjoy playing softball and basketball and hope to be able to participate in the athletic program for the school I will teach in.
